Badlands

Someone was talking about a pipeline
Saying come on in, the water's fine, the water's all mine
If there'd been gas, some kind of fracking
Maybe I could've gotten back in the game after all

You and me, we're too cool
Too beautiful for the rules to apply
And I am tired of waiting

This used to be the Old West
Now it's the home of drag-chute speed tests
I still got my cowboy dreams
And if you're talking about a new frontier
I'll tell you: it's here. It's right here

You and me, we're too cool
Too beautiful for the rules to apply
And I am tired of waiting

Beware the things that weigh you down
When you're plotting an escape
Beware the voices that condemn you
Kneel down now and let us pray

It's you and me alone tonight
Standing up to a world of lost causes and lost souls
You're so fine, so rarefied
You look so pretty with the light shining through the bullet holes

I'm a six-gun, I'm a six-gun, yeah, I'm a gun tonight

I am tired of waiting
